Georgios 28 was bishop of Gallos and Kadosia (see below); in 681 he attended the Third Council of Constantinople (the Sixth Ecumenical Council) and was present at two of the last three sessions (sessions sixteen and eighteen, on 9 August and 16 September 681): Riedinger, pp. 690-827 (= Mansi XI 616-678).

In the lists of those present at each session he is styled Γεωργίου ἐπισκόπου τοῦ Γάλλου : Riedinger, p. 690, line 7, p. 760, line 18 (= Mansi XI 616, 628). In the subscriptions to the statement of the faith, which condemned monotheletism, he is styled Γεώργιος ἐλέει Θεοῦ ἐπίσκοπος Καδοσίας Βιθυνῶν ἐπαρχίας: Riedinger, p. 790, line 18 (= Mansi XI 649). The old Latin version printed in Riedinger, p. 791, line 20 (= Mansi 650), calls his see "ciuitatis Cadosiae Bithiniae". In the signatures to the Council he is styled Γεώργιος ἐλέει Θεοῦ ἐπίσκοπος τῆς Καδοσέων πόλεως: Riedinger, p. 827, line 12 (= Mansi XI 677). The old Latin version here, printed only in Mansi, calls his see "civitatis Cadoseorum Bithyniae provinciae": Mansi XI 678.

He was still bishop in 692, when he attended the Quinisext Council in Constantinople and signed the canons: Ohme, Bischofsliste, p. 156, no. 98 (= Mansi XI 996) (Γεώργιος ἀνάξιος ἐπίσκοπος πόλεως Καδοσέων Βιθυνῶν ἐπαρχίας). For the see of Gallos and Kadosia (also called Lophos), see Ramsay, Historical Geography, pp. 182, 208, 247; Jones, Cities, pp. 166, 429.
